Have a fun weekend.

What are your plans this weekend? We're going to the Dumbo carousel with Toby and, once he's in bed, heading to this yummy restaurant with some friends. (Fried chicken and cheddar waffles for dinner? Count me in!) Also, Louis C.K.'s HBO special premieres this Saturday at 10pm, if you're interested. That dude is hilarious. Have a wonderful weekend, and here are a few fun posts from around the web...

I think you've commented on the There's Going to Be a Baby book before. It does look cute so I got it from the library after I found out that I was having another. Honestly, it's just weird. Pretty to look at but the text is weird and there's no dad whatsoever which my husband found odd.

here in north italy, in Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliett, the sun is shining! Spring is coming, it's about time! for me, my hausband, my two little girls a japan restaurant, our favorite. have a nice w.e. kisses. Maggie from Italy

The freezing cookie dough is a good idea! Er, or so I thought. I did this for a few weeks, and I actually saw an increase in my electric bill that I could only attribute to using the oven more frequently than usual (I usually cook on the stove top and don't use the oven much). Crazy, huh?! So now I've switched over to chocolate covered raisins for dessert :)

That might be true, but, just as this post states, after 9/11 the daff was adopted by the city as a way to remember that day. I love seeing them in all the parks and along the Westside Highway at this time of year and thinking about peace instead of remembering. It's much nicer. And planting them is a contemplative way to remember, to meditate, to meet new New Yorkers. It's a good thing I think.

I don't feel guilty for indulging in the occasional Chipotle burrito... but I will admit that there are far too many nights when I probably consume 800 calories of beer! (Can't they just remove the calories?)

just found your blog not too long ago and really enjoy it! love this post especially as i am one of the artists who helped restore that carousel! i miss nyc in the spring ( and the awesome cupcakes at almondine on water st.)!! thank you for posting this and i hope you and your family have a super great weekend!sara lee

Before clicking I knew it would be the Fogo Island Inn. I am from Newfoundland, which in itself a place so full of beauty and wonder, but Fogo is special! And the story of Zita Cobb and her revitalization of the island is really awesome and inspiring and makes me want to be a philanthropist when I grow up!

Hope you enjoy the carousel @Dumbo, love it there. If you and the hubby head back to that hood sans the little man, I just took my hubby for his birthday to the Floating Kabarette {http://www.galapagosartspace.com/floating-kabarette/} at the Galapagos art space, it was really entertaining and try dinner {with a reservation} at Rebar if you haven't been, Yummy!. That neighborhood makes for great date nites!

Hey, have you seen this? It seems valid and reliable, but even if it's not, it may be a fun game to play with your husband or family to determine Baby Goddard's gender. :) Toby's so cute, I bet a little brother would be equally as adorable, but one has to wonder what a baby Girl Goddard looks like. Anyway, check out the article. NOT spam, lol, I Promise! Just too much trouble for me to quote and then ethically cite, lol. (Yes, I am lazy tonight.)

Oooh, love the idea of a pop up flower shop. Not in NYC, but it was a lovely thought anyway. :) Sounds like you lined up a nice weekend. We took it easy. I had a little photo shoot of my new haircut, you know...important stuff like that. ;)

Hi, I absolutely love reading your blog. It was one of the first few I started to follow way way back. And now I look forward to reading your posts everyday.. Oh, and thanks to you, Im dying to visit NY. Greetings from Malaysia : )
